The number of parallel DB connections that a single API object can handle is determined by the amount of time the query spends in Python. A single API object is still single-threaded and uses only one CPU for executing the Python part.
The original value of 10 threads is far too optimistic about how fast Python is. Reduce to a value of 5, which worked out okay in production.
